Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Crestliner 2250 Authority 2016 vs Crestliner Tournament Series 192 SC 2004: Same Brand, Different Boat
The Crestliner 2250 Authority 2016 vs Crestliner Tournament Series 192 SC 2004 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story: intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.
The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 200 hp, the Crestliner Tournament Series 192 SC 2004 has a 25-hp advantage over the Crestliner 2250 Authority 2016's 175-hp ceiling - enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads - 54 gal and 54 gal - so range won't be a tiebreaker here.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Crestliner 2250 Authority 2016 is rated for 7 passengers, while the Crestliner Tournament Series 192 SC 2004 caps at 6. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Crestliner 2250 Authority 2016 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Crestliner 2250 Authority 2016 if your priority is putting more people on the water - it handles 7 passengers and at 23,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Crestliner Tournament Series 192 SC 2004 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 6 that costs less to run day-to-day.
